Opening Line: "I was snuggled in my mother's arms in the backseat of the old Buick. My Dad's Air Force buddy was at the wheel, driving us from Fort Dix Air Force Base to Colarado, where Dad was being transferred."I knew next to nothing about 70’s B-movie and Blaxploitation star Pam Grier before I be...
Foxy Brown. Coffy. Kit Porter. Hot. Gutsy. Trendsetter. Backup singer. Movie star. This is Pam Grier.Everyone has a story to tell. This is why I love memoirs.
